We have friends we'd never met, Americans who moved to England 20 years ago and opened a magical (no exaggeration) bookstore in Alfriston called @MuchAdoBooks. We dropped in yesterday and had a MOST wonderful afternoon visiting. Some bookstores have a cat, they have a chicken.💖

We loved @katherine_heiny first novel, Standard Deviation and we are delighted to report we love this one even more!

Complicated relationships, good intentions going awry, and fascinating happenings contribute to one of our favourite books of the year. https://t.co/uNscFpDZZE

Treasures from our Bloomsbury memory box. We were fascinated to see on the poster for the first-ever Charleston Festival that the focus was ‘Bloomsbury Looks East - A Week of Exploring Past Links and Present-day Parallels Between Bloomsbury and Eastern Europe and Russia’.
